Upstate NY Church Hosts 'Porn And Pancakes' Event

[deadparrot]

An event billed as "Porn and Pancakes" is being hosted by a church in rural upstate New York.

The breakfast discussion on the pornography industry in America is planned next month at the Living Word Assembly of God Church in the town of Ontario, in rural Wayne County about ten miles east of Rochester.

A billboard advertisement near the church shows the words "Porn and Pancakes" written in syrup on a stack of flapjacks.

Organizers said the Feb. 10 event will be an honest discussion about pornography and its impact on society. The discussion will be led by XXX Church, a group of youth ministers who travel the country talking about porn and the porn industry.

5. Unfortunately it's not likely to be fact based.

I attended something of this sort about 8 years ago and the whole thing was really just a reinforcement of the addage that all sex is bad. They claimed adult stores attract crime, all women in the adult industry are on drugs and acting out from child abuse. They stopped just short of telling us thinking about nekkidity will make you blind.

I really wish they would have discussed the facts. That more of those women than we care to admit are forced against their will to pose for porn. That the child sex trade is rampant all over the world including the United States -- that it's entirely possible the money you spend on porn is being used to keep women and children in sex slavery.

I certainly do not expect a church group to support porn/toys/prostitution between actual consenting adults and how to get the kids and slaves out of the industry.... But I do think this country could really benefit from that discussion.
